英語学習でよく言われる「直読直解」「英語英語理解する」というのはネイティブみたいに理解できるかといえばそんなことは全くなくて

単に「英語を読む→日本語に置き換えて理解する」を高速でやってるだけにすぎない

日本まれ日本育ちの我々が本当に英語英語理解するなんてことは土台無理で、日本語インストールしたが最後日本語思考から離れられなくなってしま

からこそ2020年菅総理トランプに向けて見舞いのツイートを送ったときアメリカ在住歴数十年の日本人や、東大卒研究者翻訳家予備校講師たちがこぞってこの簡単英文誤読した

Dear President Trump, I was very worried about you when I read your tweet saying that you and Madam First Lady tested positive for COVID-19.

彼らの言い分はこうだ:I was very worriedと過去形にすると現在心配していないことになって失礼だ

彼らはこの言い分をもとに菅総理非難を浴びせかけ、中でも人気駿台講師田中健一氏(ツイッターフォロワー約2万人)は「国交断絶可能性すらある」と厳しく非難した

しかしその後の報道ネイティブスピーカーたちの反応から周知の通り、英文には間違いがなかったのである

デーブ・スペクター氏 菅首相英文ツイートは「問題ない」けど「オチがない」

https://hayabusa9.5ch.net/test/read.cgi/mnewsplus/1602138662/

考えてみれば当たり前の話で、過去形にしたからといって現在心配していない、などという意味になるわけがない

例えば結婚式の後に「ウェディングドレス姿、すごいきれいだったよ」と言ったら今はきれいじゃないことになるのか、そんなはずはない

ところが、英語英語理解しているはずの上級者たちはこんな簡単英文すら読めなかった

これは上級者であっても日本語ベース理解しているに過ぎないことの決定的な証左である

もう一つ残念なことは、菅総理非難を浴びせた英語上級者たちは、ネイティブから「間違いではない」と指摘されても、無視したりはぐらかし続けて決して誤読を認めようとしなかったことだ

当時のツイートを遡れば分かるが、それはもう醜悪の極みとも言うべきものだった

英語ができるキャラで売っている手前、何千人ものフォロワーの前で「自分はこんなにも簡単英語誤読しました」と自白することはプライドが許さないのだろう

それに「菅総理が間違っている」と言い続ければ、とにかく総理批判できればいいという層からの支持は得られる、そんな打算もあったのではないか

この件は3年前ということもありすでに記憶から薄れている人も多いと思うが、大して英語もできないくせにいっちょ前にプライドだけ肥大した日本英語上級者たちは猛省すべきである

セックスジェンダー」はバトラーの致命的な誤訳

いわゆるトランス支持者の主張に、セックスジェンダー規定される、というトンデモ説がある

実はこれ、完全な誤訳なのだ

以下の論文で示されているが、「セックスにもジェンダーの部分もあるよ」という話が、誤訳によって「セックスジェンダーである」という話にすり替えられている。

結局、誤訳によってものを考えているから、トランス支持者の主張は支離滅裂になるんである

ジェンダートラブル』のジェンダーと「身体なるもの

https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/jsr/63/3/63_341/_article/-char/ja/

It would make no sense, then, to define gender as the cultural interpretation of sex, if sex itself is a gendered category. Gender ought not to be conceived merely as the cultural inscription of meaning on a pregiven sex(a juridical conception); gender must also designate the very apparatus of production whereby the sexes themselves are established.(Butler 1990: 10=1999)

2 文目に注目していただきたい.竹村和子の訳では「ジェンダーは,生得セックス(法的概念)に文化意味を書き込んだものだと考えるべきではない.ジェンダーは,それによってセックスのもの確立されていく生産装置のことである」(Butler [1990]2000=1999: 29)となっている.しかし,竹村の訳から,merely とalso の意味が抜けていることは,バトラーがこの一文でおこなっていることを不明瞭にしてしまう.つまり,このように訳すべきなのだ.「ジェンダーは,『たんに』生得セックス(法的概念)に文化意味を書き込んだものだと考えるべきではない.ジェンダーはまた,それによってセックスのもの確立されていく生産装置のことで『も』ある」

The Sacrament—and the Sacrifice

By Elder David B. Haight

Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

I pray for your faith and prayers that my utterances will be received and understood “by the Spirit of truth” and that my expressions will be given “by the Spirit of truth” so that we might all be “edified and rejoice together.” (See D&C 50:21–22.)

As I stand here today—a well manwords of gratitude and acknowledgment of divine intervention are so very inadequate in expressing the feelings in my soul.

Six months ago at the April general conference, I was excused from speaking as I was convalescing from a serious operation. My life has been spared, and I now have the pleasant opportunity of acknowledging the blessings, comfort, and ready aid of my Brethren in the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve, and other wonderful associates and friends to whom I owe so much and who surrounded my dear wife, Ruby, and my family with their time, attention, and prayers. For the inspired doctors and thoughtful nurses I express my deepest gratitude, and for the thoughtful letters and messages of faith and hope received from many places in the world, many expressing, “You have been in our prayers” or “We have been asking our Heavenly Father to spare your life.” Your prayers and mine, thankfully, have been answered.

One unusual card caused me to ponder upon the majesty of it all. It is an original painting by Arta Romney Ballif of the heavens at night with its myriad golden stars. Her caption, taken from Psalms, reads:

“Praise ye the Lord: …

“He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

“He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

“… His understanding is infinite.” (Ps. 147:1, 3–5.)

As I lay in the hospital bed, I meditated on all that had happened to me and studied the contemplative painting by President Marion G. Romney’s sister and the lines from Psalms: “He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.” I was then—and continue to be—awed by the goodness and majesty of the Creator, who knows not only the names of the stars but knows your name and my name—each of us as His sons and daughters.

The psalmist, David, wrote:

“When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

“What is man, that thou art mindful of him? …

“For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.” (Ps. 8:3–5.)

To be remembered is a wonderful thing.

The evening of my health crisis, I knew something very serious had happened to me. Events happened so swiftly—the pain striking with such intensity, my dear Ruby phoning the doctor and our family, and I on my knees leaning over the bathtub for support and some comfort and hoped relief from the pain. I was pleading to my Heavenly Father to spare my life a while longer to give me a little more time to do His work, if it was His will.

While still praying, I began to lose consciousness. The siren of the paramedic truck was the last that I remembered before unconsciousness overtook me, which would last for the next several days.

The terrible pain and commotion of people ceased. I was now in a calm, peaceful setting; all was serene and quiet. I was conscious of two persons in the distance on a hillside, one standing on a higher level than the other. Detailed features were not discernible. The person on the higher level was pointing to something I could not see.

I heard no voices but was conscious of being in a holy presence and atmosphere. During the hours and days that followed, there was impressed again and again upon my mind the eternal mission and exalted position of the Son of Man. I witness to you that He is Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, Savior to all, Redeemer of all mankind, Bestower of infinite love, mercy, and forgiveness, the Light and Life of the world. I knew this truth before—I had never doubted nor wondered. But now I knew, because of the impressions of the Spirit upon my heart and soul, these divine truths in a most unusual way.

I was shown a panoramic view of His earthly ministry: His baptism, His teaching, His healing the sick and lame, the mock trial, His crucifixion, His resurrection and ascension. There followed scenes of His earthly ministry to my mind in impressive detail, confirming scriptural eyewitness accounts. I was being taught, and the eyes of my understanding were opened by the Holy Spirit of God so as to behold many things.

The first scene was of the Savior and His Apostles in the upper chamber on the eve of His betrayal. Following the Passover supper, He instructed and prepared the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper for His dearest friends as a remembrance of His coming sacrifice. It was so impressively portrayed to me—the overwhelming love of the Savior for each. I witnessed His thoughtful concern for significant details—the washing of the dusty feet of each Apostle, His breaking and blessing of the loaf of dark bread and blessing of the wine, then His dreadful disclosure that one would betray Him.

He explained Judas’s departure and told the others of the events soon to take place.

Then followed the Savior’s solemn discourse when He said to the Eleven: “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33.)

Our Savior prayed to His Father and acknowledged the Father as the source of His authority and powereven to the extending of eternal life to all who are worthy.

He prayed, “And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”

Jesus then reverently added:

“I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

“And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.” (John 17:3–5.)

He pled not only for the disciples called out from the world who had been true to their testimony of Him, “but for them also which shall believe on me through their word.” (John 17:20.)

When they had sung a hymn, Jesus and the Eleven went out to the Mount of Olives. There, in the garden, in some manner beyond our comprehension, the Savior took upon Himself the burden of the sins of mankind from Adam to the end of the world. His agony in the garden, Luke tells us, was so intense “his sweat was as … great drops of blood falling … to the ground.” (Luke 22:44.) He suffered an agony and a burden the like of which no human person would be able to bear. In that hour of anguish our Savior overcame all the power of Satan.

The glorified Lord revealed to Joseph Smith this admonition to all mankind:

“Therefore I command you to repent …

“For … I, God, … suffered … for all, that they might not suffer if they would repent; …

“Which suffering caused myself, even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, …

“Wherefore, I command you again to repent, lest I humble you with my almighty power; and that you confess your sins, lest you suffer these punishments.” (D&C 19:15–16, 18, 20.)

During those days of unconsciousness I was given, by the gift and power of the Holy Ghost, a more perfect knowledge of His mission. I was also given a more complete understanding of what it means to exercise, in His name, the authority to unlock the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven for the salvation of all who are faithful. My soul was taught over and over again the events of the betrayal, the mock trial, the scourging of the flesh of even one of the Godhead. I witnessed His struggling up the hill in His weakened condition carrying the cross and His being stretched upon it as it lay on the ground, that the crude spikes could be driven with a mallet into His hands and wrists and feet to secure His body as it hung on the cross for public display.

Crucifixion—the horrible and painful death which He suffered—was chosen from the beginning. By that excruciating death, He descended below all things, as is recorded, that through His resurrection He would ascend above all things. (See D&C 88:6.)

Jesus Christ died in the literal sense in which we will all die. His body lay in the tomb. The immortal spirit of Jesus, chosen as the Savior of mankind, went to those myriads of spirits who had departed mortal life with varying degrees of righteousness to God’s laws. He taught them the “glorious tidings of redemption from the bondage of death, and of possible salvation, … [which was] part of [our] Savior’s foreappointed and unique service to the human family.” (James E. Talmage, Jesus the Christ, Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1977, p. 671.)

I cannot begin to convey to you the deep impact that these scenes have confirmed upon my soul. I sense their eternal meaning and realize thatnothing in the entire plan of salvation compares in any way in importance with that most transcendent of all events, the atoning sacrifice of our Lord. It is the most important single thing that has ever occurred in the entire history of created things; it is the rock foundation upon which the gospel and all other things rest,” as has been declared. (Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1966, p. 60.)

Father Lehi taught his son Jacob and us today:

“Wherefore, redemption cometh in and through the Holy Messiah; for he is full of grace and truth.

“Behold, he offereth himself a sacrifice for sin, to answer the ends of the law, unto all those who have a broken heart and a contrite spirit; and unto none else can the ends of the law be answered.

“Wherefore, how great the importance to make these things known unto the inhabitants of the earth, that they may know that there is no flesh that can dwell in the presence of God, save it be through the merits, and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah, who layeth down his life according to the flesh, and taketh it again by the power of the Spirit, that he may bring to pass the resurrection of the dead, being the first that should rise.

“Wherefore, he is the firstfruits unto God, inasmuch as he shall make intercession for all the children of men; and they that believe in him shall be saved.” (2 Ne. 2:6–9.)

Our most valuable worship experience in the sacrament meeting is the sacred ordinance of the sacrament, for it provides the opportunity to focus our minds and hearts upon the Savior and His sacrifice.

The Apostle Paul warned the early Saints against eating this bread and drinking this cup of the Lord unworthily. (See 1 Cor. 11:27–30.)

Our Savior Himself instructed the Nephites, “Whoso eateth and drinketh my flesh and blood unworthily [brings] damnation to his soul.” (3 Ne. 18:29.)

Worthy partakers of the sacrament are in harmony with the Lord and put themselves under covenant with Him to always remember His sacrifice for the sins of the world, to take upon them the name of Christ and to always remember Him, and to keep His commandments. The Savior covenants that we who do so shall have His spirit to be with us and that, if faithful to the end, we may inherit eternal life.

Our Lord revealed to Joseph Smith that “there is no gift greater than the gift of salvation,” which plan includes the ordinance of the sacrament as a continuous reminder of the Savior’s atoning sacrifice. He gave instructions thatit is expedient that the church meet together often to partake of bread and wine in the remembrance of the Lord Jesus.” (D&C 6:13; D&C 20:75.)

Immortality comes to us all as a free gift by the grace of God alone, without works of righteousness. Eternal life, however, is the reward for obedience to the laws and ordinances of His gospel.

I testify to all of you that our Heavenly Father does answer our righteous pleadings. The added knowledge which has come to me has made a great impact upon my life. The gift of the Holy Ghost is a priceless possession and opens the door to our ongoing knowledge of God and eternal joy. Of this I bear witness, in the holy name of Jesus Christ, amen.

[] 無限の探求 マルチバースへの旅

In the year 3000, humanity had finally discovered the secrets of the multiverse. Using their most advanced technology, they had found a way to travel between different parallel universes, each with their own unique physical laws and structures.

As the first explorers set out on their journeys, they encountered a myriad of strange and wondrous worlds. Some universes were filled with infinite copies of themselves, while others were constantly shifting and changing, their physical laws in a state of constant flux.

As they traveled deeper into the multiverse, the explorers encountered universes that seemed to follow completely different sets of physical laws. In some, time flowed backwards, and cause and effect were reversed. In others, matter was made up of entirely different particles, and energy behaved in completely unexpected ways.

As the explorers continued to journey further, they began to encounter universes that seemed to be simulations, created by beings in higher dimensions. They encountered universes where the laws of physics were entirely mathematical, and others where the very fabric of reality was made up of pure information.

At last, the explorers came to a universe that seemed to encompass all of the many-worlds interpretations. In this universe, every possible outcome of every possible event was played out in infinite parallel realities. The explorers marveled at the incredible complexity and diversity of this universe, as they watched endless versions of themselves carrying out endless variations of their own adventures.

As they prepared to leave this universe and return home, the explorers realized that they had only scratched the surface of the multiverse. They knew that there were still countless more universes to explore, each with their own unique physical laws and structures.

And so, they set out once more, to journey deeper into the multiverse, and to discover the secrets of the infinite many-worlds that lay waiting to be explored.

As the explorers continued their journey, they encountered a universe where time did not exist, and another where the laws of physics were governed by emotion rather than math. In yet another universe, they discovered that consciousness itself was the fundamental building block of reality.

As they explored further, the explorers encountered universes where the laws of physics were not constants but varied across space and time. They found a universe where entropy decreased over time, and another where gravity was repulsive rather than attractive.

At the edge of the multiverse, the explorers discovered a universe that seemed to contain all of the other universes within it. This universe was infinite in size and contained infinite variations of itself, each one a slightly different version of the universe they knew.

As they traveled through this universe, the explorers encountered versions of themselves that had made different choices and lived different lives. Some of these versions were almost identical to their own, while others were wildly different, with entirely different personalities and goals.

At last, the explorers returned to their own universe, their minds reeling from the incredible sights and experiences they had witnessed. They knew that the multiverse was an endless sea of possibility, and that there were still countless more universes to explore.

As they shared their discoveries with the rest of humanity, they realized that the true nature of the multiverse was still a mystery. They knew that there were many theories and hypotheses, but no one could say for sure which one was right.

And so, the explorers continued their journey, driven by a hunger to uncover the secrets of the multiverse and to understand the true nature of reality itself.

hi, i live very close to MSU. I had plans to be at the Union Building that evening to work on some stuff at one of the tables or glass study room things in the basement. it's only be coincidence that I was not there, because I had to go home to fix a computer that had stopped working correctly. I got lucky.

i went there this morning, to the Sparty statue. I was there for a bit.

I hear there's some stuff at the Hannah building, resources, people to talk to, etc. You might consider going there.

ChatGPTにお前はどうやって実装されてんの?って聞いてみたら

マジレスされてチビッた.こりゃGoogleさんもビビるわけだ.

ぼく:

How were you implemented? Is it deep learning-based?

ChatGPT:

I am a language model called GPT-3 (Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3) that was developed by OpenAI. It is a deep learning-based model that uses a type of neural network called a transformer, which was trained on a large dataset of text to learn patterns of language.

GPT-3 is trained using a technique called unsupervised learning, where the model is given a massive amount of text data and uses this data to learn patterns and relationships in the language. This allows GPT-3 to generate human-like text when given a prompt, and to understand and respond to natural language input.

The training process of GPT-3 involves a technique called pre-training, which means that the model is trained on a massive dataset before being fine-tuned on a smaller task-specific dataset. This pre-training allows GPT-3 to have a good general understanding of the language and to be able to adapt to specific tasks more easily.

The GPT-3 model has 175 billion parameters, which is one of the largest language models to date, making it able to generate very human-like text and to understand context in a very natural way.

ぼく:

How does GPT-3 have a knowledgebase like an ontology? As it is deep learning-based, the knowledgebase like an ontology would not be implemented explicitly, but the structure should be designed with an expectation of having such a knowledge about hierarchy of concepts.

ChatGPT:

GPT-3, like other deep learning models, does not have an explicit knowledgebase or ontology built into its structure. Instead, it has been trained on a large dataset of text, which allows it to learn patterns and relationships between concepts.

However, the training data that GPT-3 was exposed to, likely contains a wide range of concepts and hierarchical structures. As GPT-3 learns patterns in the data, it can begin to understand the relationships between different concepts and ideas, and how they are related to each other. This allows the model to generate text that is more coherent and semantically meaningful, making it possible to understand the context and hierarchy of concepts, but it does not have an explicit ontology like a knowledge graph.

It can be said that GPT-3 has a certain level of "implicit ontology", in the sense that it has learned the relationships between concepts in a way that is similar to how a knowledge graph or ontology organizes information. However, it's important to note that GPT-3's understanding of concepts and relationships is based on the patterns it has learned from the training data, which is not a structured and explicit knowledgebase like an ontology.

ぼく:

Then how does GPT-3 handle the long-term or short term memories? Can it remember information about the on-going chatting? My name is Masuda, can GPT-3 keep it in the memory? Furthermore, can it learn and understand the new information from the Q-A queries, and use it in the future queries?

ChatGPT:

GPT-3 handles long-term and short-term memories differently. When it generates text, it uses a technique called attention mechanism which allows the model to focus on certain parts of the input while generating the output. This allows GPT-3 to keep track of previous information and context when generating text, which can be thought of as a form of short-term memory.

Regarding the on-going chatting, GPT-3 can keep track of certain information, like the name you've provided, Masuda, during the conversation and use it in future responses. However, it's important to note that GPT-3 is a stateless model, which means that it doesn't have a permanent memory that it can refer to after a conversation ends.

Regarding learning from Q-A, GPT-3 is trained on a massive dataset of text, and it learns patterns and relationships between concepts from this data. It can generate text that is semantically meaningful and coherent, but it does not have the capability to learn new information from Q-A sessions and use it in future queries. However, OpenAI has developed another model called DALL-E, which uses GPT-3 and it is capable of learning from Q-A sessions and use it in future queries.

ぼく:

Is ChatGPT superior to the Google search? Previously people used Google to search for their questions. Now a days, ChatGPT can answer to those questions. What are pros and cons of ChatGPT over the Google search?

ChatGPT:

ChatGPT and Google search are different technologies with different capabilities and strengths.

Google search is a powerful web search engine that can quickly find relevant information from a vast amount of web pages and documents. It uses complex algorithms to rank and sort search results based on relevance, popularity, and other factors. Google search is very good at providing factual information and is an excellent tool for researching a wide range of topics.

ChatGPT, on the other hand, is a natural language processing model that can generate human-like text. It is trained on a large dataset of text and uses this knowledge to understand and respond to natural language input. ChatGPT can generate text that is more coherent and semantically meaningful than a simple information retrieval engine like Google search. ChatGPT can also be used to generate text that is more engaging and human-like, such as in chatbots and virtual assistants.

One of the main advantages of ChatGPT over Google search is its ability to understand and respond to natural language input in a more human-like way. ChatGPT can also generate text that is more coherent and semantically meaningful, which can be useful in many applications. However, Google search is better at providing factual information and searching for specific pieces of information.

Another disadvantage of ChatGPT is that it doesn't have the ability to retrieve information from the web, it can only generate text based on the patterns it has learned from the training data. That's why it's not a replacement for a web search engine like Google but it can be used as an additional tool to help people to find the information they are looking for.

In summary, ChatGPT and Google search have different strengths and capabilities. While Google search is better at providing factual information, ChatGPT is better at understanding and responding to natural language input in a more human-like way.

ぼく:

Why don't ChatGPT refer to Google search in the generation of the conversation? Google Assistant has such a function. Is the reason due to the fact that OpenAI is funded by Google?

ChatGPT:

ChatGPT is a language model that generates text based on the patterns it has learned from the training data. While it can understand and respond to natural language input in a human-like way, it does not have the capability to access external sources of information like Google search.

Google Assistant, on the other hand, is a virtual assistant that can access a wide range of information and services through the internet, including Google search. Google Assistant can use this information to provide more accurate and relevant responses to user queries.

The reason ChatGPT does not refer to Google search during the generation of the conversation is likely because it was not designed or trained to do so. Instead, it was designed to generate text based on the patterns it has learned from the training data, and it does not have the capability to access external sources of information.

It's worth noting that OpenAI and Google are separate organizations, even though Google is an investor in OpenAI, this doesn't necessarily mean that the two companies work together on their products and services. OpenAI has its own development team, goals and roadmap and they are independent from Google.

ぼく:

I am going to post this conversation with ChatGPT in the anonymous diary of Hatena co. What should I do for attracting people to get many bookmarks?

ChatGPT:

There are several things you can do to attract people and increase the chances of your conversation with ChatGPT getting many bookmarks on Hatena diary. Some suggestions include:

1. Make sure your conversation is well-written and easy to understand. Use clear and concise language, and consider formatting your text in a way that makes it easy to read.

2. Use relevant keywords and hashtags in your diary entry. This can help make your conversation more discoverable to people searching for related topics on Hatena diary.

3. Include images or videos in your diary entry. This can make your conversation more visually appealing and can help attract more readers.

4. Share your diary entry on social media or other platforms. This can help increase the visibility of your conversation and attract more readers.

5. Encourage readers to share their thoughts and opinions on your conversation by including a call to action or a question at the end of your diary entry.

6. Finally, you can also try to participate in the conversation on Hatena diary, by answering the questions, responding to the comments, and engaging with your readers.

It's important to remember that getting many bookmarks on a diary is not easy and it can take time and effort to build an audience. But by following these tips and being consistent with your diary entry, you will increase the chances of attracting more readers and getting more bookmarks.

ぼく:

Thank you. By the way, what is my name?

ChatGPT:

一家さん

新年あけましておめでとうございます

片岡です。

お陰様で、年末年始ゆっくり過ごすことができました。

お問い合わせいただきました件ですが、 ご遠慮申し上げることはかないませんでしょうか。

新しいお仕事もいただいておりませんので、 前回お話しいたしました状況と変わりはございません。 新しいお仕事をいただかない限り、特段何かが変化する理由もございません。

そちらにつきましては、一家さんもご理解くださることと存じます

近況につきましてはLDE面談で申し上げておりますし、一家さんにもご報告が届いているものと存じます面談をご設定いただく合理的理由はございませんように思われますので、 ご遠慮させていただけませんでしょうか。

そのような状況で面談をご設定いただきますと、

以前の、最低1か月に1回、 時に間1日おいて、 もしくは、

仕事中に突然電話パートナーに呼び出されての頻回な面談を思い出します。

パートナーと人事担当者を前に、周囲の人に内容を聞かれる恐れのある執務階の ガラスで仮仕切りされただけの会議室での面談は非常に恐怖を覚えました。

その際「このように評価が低いことに関してどう思いますか」とのご質問を受けました。

このような尋ね方をされましたら、たとえ自身問題がない場合でも至らないと答えざるをえない とご承知の上でのご尋問である理解しております

自身の至らないことを自ら語らせ、本人も至らないことを認めている というエビデンスを記録するための面談がまた始まるのかと思うと精神的な圧迫を覚えます

また、この件に関しての最終責任者がどなたか教授いただけますと幸いです。 以前にお尋ねいたしました際には、このあたりの方々と曖昧におっしゃいましたが、 責任帰属を明らかにすると何か不都合なことでもおありなのでしょうか。

誠に勝手申し訳ございませんが

、 同期に自殺者がいらっしゃることもご存知かと存じますので(他にもいらっしゃることもご存知かと)、 どうぞご配慮のほどよろしくお願い申し上げます

また、一家さんは、万全の準備をされたうえでこのメールをくださったことと存じます

ご返信を差し上げるためにいただきました多少の猶予につきましてはご容赦のほど、

よろしくお願い申し上げます

お忙しいところお時間を頂戴し、痛み入ります。 本年もどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

近況のご報告として、 前回の面談までに申し上げました自己研に、 文章英訳を追加するつもりでおります。 ご報告代わりに、上記文面の英訳を試みたものを以下に記載いたします。 ニュアンス等至らない点はご容赦いただけますと幸いです。

Hitotsuya-san

Happy new year.

This is Kataoka.

Thanks to all of you, I was able to relax during the New Year holidays.

I have not received any new work,

Regarding your request, would it be possible for you to refrain from setting up an interview? so there is no change from my self-improvement situation that I talked about last time. Unless receive a request for a new job, there is no particular reason for anything to change.

I am sure that Hitotsuya-san will also be able to understand that. I told my coach about my recent situation at the LDE interview,

and I think Hitotsuya-san has also received the report.

Therefore, I don't think there is a reasonable reason to have an interview,

so I would appreciate it if you could refrain from doing so.

If you set up an interview in such a situation,

I would shudder to remember the stressful and frequent interviews I used to have.

at least once a month, sometimes at intervals of one day, or during work. I remember the interviews when a partner suddenly called me on the phone.

I was terrified to have an interview in a conference room on the office floor that was just separated by glass, where people around the conference room could hear what was talking about in front of a partner and the person in charge of human resources.

They asked, "What do you think about this low rating?"

understand that if you ask me this way, even if I do not have any problems, I will have to answer about my shortcomings.

I feel a sense of pressure when I think that the interview to record the evidence that myself admit that I am lacking in ability will start again.

I'm very sorry that I can't agree with your proposal,

but I'm sure you know that someone who joined the company at the same time as me committed suicide. Thank you very much for your consideration

Also, would appreciate it if you could let me know who is the final person responsible for this matter. When I asked about this earlier, you gave some names and obscured the responsibility. Is there anything wrong with clarifying where responsibility lies?

believe that Hitotsuya-san sent this e-mail after being all set. Therefore, would appreciate it if you could understand that I received a little grace in replying

Thank you for your time when you are busy

スパルタ人はわざと重い鉄貨を使ったのか?

友達最近藤村シシンさんがFGOギリシャ史と絡めて解説する動画にハマったらしい。ヲタトークをしていたらシシンさんの動画面白かったという話をしていて、それはいいんだけど、「古代スパルタだとお金をわざと重くして人々が堕落しないようにしてたんだって!」と楽しそうに語りだしたので「そんなことある???」と思ってしまった。古代ギリシャ史については素人だけど、流石にちょっと胡散臭くないか

ということで調べてみました!

動画はこれ。

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1R-hpr7FJdI

まあトーク番組だから出典をいちいち挙げないのは当然として、じゃあ何がソースなんだろうと思ってちょっと検索してみたら、元ネタプルタルコスの『英雄伝』なのね……『英雄伝』はギリシャローマ英雄たちの逸話を紹介してる本で、日本語訳複数出てるけど、増田素人から手元になくて近所の図書館にもなさそうなので、ネット英訳版を見てみることにする。具体的にはリュクールゴスの章に書かれているらしい。

Not contented with this, he resolved to make a division of their movables too, that there might be no odious distinction or inequality left amongst them; but finding that it would be very dangerous to go about it openly, he took another course, and defeated their avarice by the following stratagem: he commanded that all gold and silver coin should be called in, and that only a sort of money made of iron should be current, a great weight and quantity of which was very little worth; so that to lay up twenty or thirty pounds there was required a pretty large closet, and, to remove it, nothing less than a yoke of oxen. With the diffusion of this money, at once a number of vices were banished from Lacedaemon; for who would rob another of such a coin? Who would unjustly detain or take by force, or accept as a bribe, a thing which it was not easy to hide, nor a credit to have, nor indeed of any use to cut in pieces? For when it was just red hot, they quenched it in vinegar, and by that means spoilt it, and made it almost incapable of being worked.

In the next place, he declared an outlawry of all needless and superfluous arts; but here he might almost have spared his proclamation; for they of themselves would have gone after the gold and silver, the money which remained being not so proper payment for curious work; for, being of iron, it was scarcely portable, neither, if they should take the means to export it, would it pass amongst the other Greeks, who ridiculed it. So there was now no more means of purchasing foreign goods and small wares; merchants sent no shiploads into Laconian ports; no rhetoric-master, no itinerate fortune-teller, no harlot-monger, or gold or silversmith, engraver, or jeweller, set foot in a country which had no money; so that luxury, deprived little by little of that which fed and fomented it, wasted to nothing and died away of itself. For the rich had no advantage here over the poor, as their wealth and abundance had no road to come abroad by but were shut up at home doing nothing. (...)

http://classics.mit.edu/Plutarch/lycurgus.html

なるほど、シシンさんのトークプルタルコス記述に忠実だ。少なくとも彼女は盛って話していたわけではない。

で、プルタルコスの『英雄伝』が書かれたのは後2世紀初頭と言われているんだけど、ここで逸話が語られているリュクールゴスはだいたい前9世紀頃に活躍した人物と言われているのね。彼はスパルタの半ば伝説的な立法者。要するにプルタルコスは直接スパルタで鉄貨を見たんじゃなくて「1000年くらい前のスパルタではそういうことがあったらしいよ」っていう伝承を語っているのよ。古事記かな?

ところで根本的に、古代ギリシャでは鉄の棒を通貨として使っていた地域があったらしいんだよね。「わざと鉄の棒を通貨として採用した」んじゃなくて「もともと鉄の棒をお金として使ってた」だと、かなりイメージ変わってこない?

https://www.brown.edu/Departments/Joukowsky_Institute/courses/greekpast/4792.html

ちょっと古い文献だけど,Charles Seltmanっていう貨幣専門家が書いたA Book of Greek Coinsっていう本にも次のようなくだりがある。

Certain it is that before coined money was used in Greece other states as well as Sparta, chief among them Sparta's great rival Argos, regularly employed iron spits as currency.(34頁)

https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.280124

なんでかというと、スパルタがあったラコニア地方は単純に鉄が採れる地域なんだってさ。そら、鉄が採掘できるなら鉄貨使うわな。

Iron was mined in Laconian territory, in the southern spurs of Taygetus and Parnon which end in Capes Taenarum and Malea. It was, therefore, but natural that the Spartans, with the wealth at their disposal, should employ bar-iron as currency; and their conservatism, combined with their lack of any more precious metal, led them to continue the employment of iron money for four centuries after other Greek states had adopted coin(33頁)

さらにこうも書かれている。

a currency which was possibly kept in use for reasons of economic convenience rather than for the enforcement of a stern rule of life(34頁)

要するに、

ってことね。

質実剛健さを重んじてわざとコインを使わなかった」のが仮に史実だとしても、「あえて鉄の棒を採用した」んじゃなくて「鉄の棒を使い続けた(=コイン採用しなかった)」というのが本当のところなんだろうなぁ。

あと,「偉い人の論文読んでみたら、普通にスパルタでは外国通貨使ってたらしいよ」というブログ記事も見つけた。ただ元の論文がなかなか見つけられないので確定的なことは言えないけれど……

https://hoferjonathan14.medium.com/the-iron-money-of-sparta-likely-a-myth-97d95d431a62

このエピソード英語で色々ググってみたけど全部出典がプルタルコスに行き着くので、考古学裏付けはあまりないっぽいんだよね。まあプルタルコスおもしろネタが満載なわけだけど、そこしか出典がないとなると結構胡散臭いんじゃないかな。

もちろん増田古典ギリシャ語とか読めない素人から、実際には他のところにも記述があったり、考古学証拠が見つかっていたり、リュクールゴス時代古文書が発掘されている可能性もあるわけだけど、個人的にはシシンさんのスパルタの鉄貨に関するトークを信じる気にはなれないかなと思いました。

追記

https://www.kk-bestsellers.com/articles/-/2907/

この記事に鉄の串の写真があって、シシンさんが解説を寄せている。解説の文面はまあ納得のいく見解なので(串がコインに先立つことや、コイン出現後もスパルタでは串が使われていたと書いている。そこに異論はない)、動画でのトークネタに振り切った感じなんだろうか……

シシンさんの動画のそこ、笑ったw 増田調査サンキューやで / その上で、動画FGOというゲームを楽しむユーザー向けで、論文ではない。そこでネタとして紹介してくれたものに目くじらを立てる気に私はならんな

FGOファン向けなら史実かどうかは怪しいおもしろエピソード史実かのように話していい…ってコト!? ワ…ワァ…FGOファンにもシシンさんにも失礼すぎて泣いちゃった!

様々な論点があるので100字に入りきらないが,スパルタ貴金属貨幣禁止していたということと,リュクルゴス制の成立を前9世紀とするのは後世による「伝統創造であるこことは指摘したい。

書き方が悪かったかもしれませんが、鉄貨の存在貴金属貨幣禁止否定していません。

動画では、シシンさんは「スパルタお金をどんどん重くしていって、賄賂や贅沢を抑止していた脳筋国家である(少しでも金額が大きくなると持ちきれないほどの重さになるから袖の下は渡せないし、持つことで鍛えられるから)」と言っています

これ、前提知識なしで聞くと「バーベルのような鉄貨は堕落を嫌ったスパルタ発明」と聞こえるんですよ。実際に増田にこの話を面白そうに話した友人もそう理解していましたし、増田トークを聞いてそう理解しました。そして実際にプルタルコスはそう書いています

でも実際には、単にコイン発明からスパルタやその周辺地域には棒状の貨幣があって、スパルタはそれをコインに置き換えなかった、という話なんですよね。で、参考文献に挙げた本にも「マッチョイズムじゃなくて経済的から使ってたんじゃない?」と書いてある(最後引用したセンテンス)。これ絶妙史実勘違いさせるトークになってません? って思っちゃうんですが、どうでしょう

(もちろん、副次的効果として賄賂の抑止や筋力増強はあったかもしれませんが、それが主目的であるかのように論じられると……都会民は電車通勤ゆえに自家用車通勤地方民より体力があったりしますが、都民の体力を増強させるために都はメトロを整備したんだ、と言い出したら違う話になるでしょう?)

リュクールゴス実在人物であるかのような筆致はご指摘のように不用意でした。

Google大企業病

We were expected to hit precise deadlines on multi-quarter projects (within two weeks), and when that inevitably didn't happen, we had to track all the time we spent on anything in 30 minute increments. It felt very cog-in-the-machine.

https://jayconrod.com/posts/122/leaving-google

この辺とか相当エグいというか、組織を上手く回すための仕組みのために労力割きすぎって感じだなあ。Googleに入れるレベルの人たちであっても、微に入り細に入りこういうような仕組みを要求されてたら、仕組みを逸脱するリスクを最小にするタスク意図的に選んで仕事するようになるだろうな。そりゃイノベーションとか起こらなくなるに決まってる。まあ数万人の社員に平均年収千万円払おうと思ったらそうせざるを得ないんだろうけど、その意味でもビジネスモデルによって決まってる規模拡大の限界って感じがするよな。

Good evening, Masuda-san.

I just wanted to drop you a line to talk about something💦.

I've been thinking about how I want to live my life, and I'm not really sure about love or marriage... I'm in the mindset that I want to think it over alone.

I was wondering if it would be a good idea to meet Masuda-san in this state of mind, even though he is very serious.

Masuda-san is a kind, respectful, and wonderful person, so it is not Masuda-san's fault, but my own problem 🙏.

Meet The Healthy, Functioning Man Who Survived With Almost No Brain. | IFLScience

https://www.iflscience.com/man-tiny-brain-lived-normal-life-31083 

 

 

When it comes to our brains, does size really matter? One of the biggest myths about the brain is that bigger is always better. But what about those who sit on the extreme end of that scale? How much of our brain do we actually need to survive? Looking through the archives of medical history, there are a number of people with tiny brains, or brains with huge chunks missing entirely, which defy all odds.

 

In a 2007 Lancet study, doctors described an incredible medical oddity – the 44-year-old civil servant who had lived a normal life despite having an incredibly tiny brain. The French man went into hospital after he experienced weakness in his left leg for two weeks. Doctors were quite surprised when they took scans of his brain and found a huge fluid-filled chamber.

 

The scans showed that the man had a “massive enlargement of the lateral, third, and fourth ventricles, a very thin cortical mantle and a posterior fossa cyst,” researchers noted in the study. In short, while fluid normally circulates throughout the brain, it’s regularly drained. But instead of draining the fluid into the circulatory system, the fluid in this man’s brain built up. Eventually, the accumulation of fluid resulted in only a tiny amount of actual brain material.

 

 

The man’s medical history showed that he had to get a shunt inserted into his head as an infant to get rid of the buildup of fluid on the brain, known as hydrocephalus. The shunt was eventually removed when at age 14, he complained of left leg weakness and some unsteadiness. The man went on to live a normal life and he got married and had two children. Tests showed that he had an IQ of 75 which, though below the average of 100, is not considered a mental disability.

 

“What I find amazing to this day is how the brain can deal with something which you think should not be compatible with life,” Dr. Max Muenke, from the National Human Genome Research Institute, told Reuters.

 

Earlier last year, IFLScience reported on the ninth known case of someone living without a cerebellum. This is the part of the brain that controls a number of important functions such as balance, motor movements and motor learning. The 24-year-old Chinese woman went into a hospital complaining of nausea and vertigo, and doctors discovered that she suffered from a rare condition known as cerebellar agenesis.

 

In another case, 12-year-old Trevor Judge Waltrip shocked medical professionals when he survived as long as he did with only his brain stem. Trevor passed away last year after going his entire life without a brain. He suffered from a rare condition called hydranencephaly, whereby the cerebral hemispheres are replaced entirely with cerebrospinal fluid. People with hydranencephaly usually survive for up to 12 weeks, which made Trevor’s case so remarkable. He was able to breathe on his own and respond to stimuli, but was blind and unable to communicate.

 

These cases show not only the adaptability and resilience of the human brain, but also how little we know about one of our most important organs. Cases like this force neuroscientists to rethink how we view the brain, particularly what functions different regions have and how the brain adapts when these regions become damaged.

共感にあらがえ - 内田樹の研究室を読んで

これは、いろいろと考えさせられるいい文章だと思った。永井陽右という青年を振り回すかのように語る内田樹。こういうマウントは嫌いじゃない。

ただ、内田が、

感情の器」って、あくまでも個人的身体条件のようなものから

というとき、何か逃げた回答のような印象を受けた。

たとえそれが自分の中から湧き出す内発的なものだとしても、大昔にアダム・スミス道徳感情論で追求したように、何かのテコで共鳴し、社会規範構成するに至るメカニズムが何かしらあるんだろうと俺には思えてならない。

そういう感覚を身に着けるのにどうすればいいかと問うた永井氏に、家風だとか、弟子入りだとか、そんな表現内田氏がするのは、けむに巻いているようにしか思えなかった。

家風にしても弟子入りにしても、そのつながり方が、社会規範にむすびつくメカニズムがあるはずだ。

アレックス・カー20年前に書いた本で『犬と鬼』という著作がある。

おりしも建設省代表される特別会計の闇が浮き彫りになった時代

アメリカの7倍のコンクリートを使って日本山河コンクリートで固めようとしていた、公共事業のあり方に疑問を呈した名著。

その『犬と鬼』のなかでカーは、そんな日本に至った問題を解明するヒントは「徳の逆説」にあるという。

「徳の逆説」というのは、国家も人も同様に、自分たちに最も欠けている資質を最も高く評価する傾向があるという、カーが常々思っている真理を彼なりに名付けたものだ。


A・カーは、フェアプレイ精神といいつつ、七つの海を支配した大英帝国の事例、平等を錦の御旗にしていた共産主義者トップ黒海に豪奢な別荘を保有し、人民実質的農奴と変わらない生活だったというソ連の例などを挙げつつ、最後に、和を貴ぶ日本人がなぜ明治開国後、対外侵略に夢中になったかという精神性に触れてゆく。

「徳の逆説」は、身近なところでも当てはまる。口うるさい親や上司説教ブーメランに思えてならない、という経験は誰もがしているはず。そして気が付くと俺も親父と同じことを子供に、という連鎖

最近、想起するのはやはり旧統一教会家族価値を高らかに謳いあげておきながら、その活動が原因で多くの家族崩壊している、といった、「おまゆう問題崩壊させているがゆえにますます高まる家庭の価値、という悪循環。これもA・カーのいう「徳の逆説」が見事に当てはまる。これは人が自分自身を規律しようとするとき動機付けメカニズムなのだ

内田永井議論テーマひとつである人権平等。あたか普遍的原理についても、

それを概念として具体化して社会が取り込んだ過程を決して忘れてはならない。

アメリカ建国者の一人、トーマスジェファーソン人権宣言を起草した当時、200人以上も奴隷を抱えていた。

これは矛盾というよりも、むしろ奴隷制にどっぷりと漬かっていたからこそ人権宣言が生まれたという「徳の逆説」のメカニズムを見るべきだろう。

どんなに薄汚れた社会であっても、一度高らかに掲げた理想は、その社会を真綿で絞めてゆく。欲望大全開の人民を前提にすると、民主政は成り立つのか。多数決をすれば少数者が圧政に苦しむのではないか、これがマディソン含め、建国者懸念だった。しかし、為政者の徳(アリストクラシー)と、欲望とは別に社会で正しいと思うことに投票する、二重人格的な資質人民に備わっていると信じて建国者デモクラシー設計した。裁判を通じ、繰り返し憲法価値観をテストする、という振り返りをビルトインした設計は本当に優れたものだ。結果として、最高裁が突き付けた奴隷制と財産権矛盾が、南北戦争北軍正当性を決定的にする。

内田議論に戻ると、外付けの人権というテーマと同時に、内発的なものとしての感情の器という、とても重要キーワードを出している。それは他方で外付け実装された人権と、どのような整理ができるのだろうか。

自分でうまく整理がつかなかった。内田はいう。

「人としてどうふるまうべきか」を子どもに刷り込むのは「家風」なんですよ。子どもたちは親の背中を見て、人間としての生き方を学ぶ。それは教科書で教えることじゃない。

これは、親子を中心とした自分史と言い換えられるのではないかと思った。さらにいえば、自分史は必ずしも親は関係いかもしれないのではないか。つまりこれまでの人生、来し方がキーなのでは。

内発的なものと外付けのもの、この二つはやはり、きちんと切り分けて、そして二つが、どうつながってゆくのか。以下、自分なりに整理を試みる。

まず外付けの倫理から。どのように受容されてきたか

舶来の概念というのは明治以来、洪水のように入った。民法など契約法の世界は、ほぼほぼ圧倒されたし、戦後憲法のものアメリカ経験に基づいたものだ。

しかし、日本人権教育は、残念なことに、人権普遍性を論証することに熱を上げてしまって、そもそも誰の内発的な経験がもとになっていたかという成り立ちのメカニズムを忘れた議論が多い。公共の福祉論などをいくら学説定義を整理してきれいに論じても、だから何?の議論だった。

戦後人権を外付け実装してきた日本は、そのルール規範の成り立ちといった背景をもう少し知る必要がある。それは教養として。

現在、旧統一教会問題話題の、国家宗教というテーマにしてもそうだ。

政教分離キーワードとなるのは、恐怖から解放だ。宗教に悩まされ、その扱いに苦慮するのは古今東西課題だ。宗教いかに折り合いをつけた制度設計をするか、古代ローマ時代からずっと抱えてきた。宗教的寛容、これが統治のカギだと気が付いたのはカルタゴ勝利した古代ローマ

そのテーマに対して、新天地アメリカに到着したプロテスタントたちの子孫が18世紀になってメイフラワー号の協約を思い出して試みたのは、旧世界では試みたことのない壮大な社会実験だった。百家争鳴な多様性のなかで社会構成するには、誰が正しいことを言っているのかは誰も断定できない、という前提に立つ必要再確認された。それが言論の自由関係では、20世紀初頭にホームズ裁判官らに代表されるように、自由市場比喩が生まれる背景ともなった。

他方、旧世界フランスでは、唯一の正しさを神に代わって宣言するカトリック教会権威苛烈弾圧が恐怖であった。だから公共空間合理化を徹底し、宗教を一掃する制度設計になった。フランス言論の自由は、その意味カトリック否定する権利が原点となる経験なのだ。だからこそ、フランスでは今でも神を冒涜する言論というのが非常に重要意味をもっていて、先日、仏風刺紙シャルリー編集長が英作家ラシュディ氏襲撃を非難したこと歴史的な背景は深い。

このように、人権というものは、何に対して恐怖してきた歴史があり、生まれてきたものなのか、という原点に思いを致すことが大切だし考えるコツだ。利他性じゃなくね。

それは、実は国によって微妙コンテクストが異なるものであり、普遍的価値として昇華できなくもないけれども、むしろ司法を通じて、原点となった恐怖を大切に思い出す機会が重要で、その社会が、その真理を繰り返し確信し、制度を強化し、再生産する重要な仕組みなのだと思う。逆に言うと、普遍的価値なら、なぜ何千年も克服できなかったか意味を問うというか。

しかし、外付けの倫理として受け取ったものを、思い出すかのように歴史を振り返るのは容易ではない。戦後日本裁判所も含めて。

でも、それこそが日本人権教育に欠如したものだということは個人的には強く思うところだ。


その意味では、外付けではない、外国の借り物ではない、内発的なもの感情の器からみえてくる倫理、これは本当に大きな価値がある。

内発的なものを自省するうえで、もっとも大切なのは自分の国や自分家族自分自身の歴史だと俺は思う。

自分自分先祖が痛い目にあってきた経験、あるいは他者を痛めにあわせてきた経験というのは、その人固有のものであって、その自分史や国の歴史を忘れてしまうと、あとは外付けの倫理けが残る。国レベルで言えば、それは端的に明治以降の日本アジア欧米との対外関係であり、開国以降、アメリカに敗北するまでの戦争に明け暮れた体験に他ならないし、国家神道によって死生観まで国に洗脳されかけた手痛い経験だ。

歴史というと大げさだが、要するに「自分たちに最も欠けている資質を最も高く評価する」、おまゆう精神自覚することだ。これは教養として学ぶというよりも、もう少し内省的なものだと思う。

自分理想とするもの現実とのギャップを振り返る作業といってもいい。

自分に欠けている部分、そこにこそ追い求めている何か理想的な姿の反転がある、という振り返り。

ネイションとしていえば、戦争体験の振り返りが重要キーになるし、国家宗教というのは、国家神道と戦争という経験で痛い目をみているのであり、ある意味、輸入された欧米経験教養として追体験するだけではなく、日本人が原体験としてもっていた大切な教訓。愛媛県靖国神社玉串料訴訟(1997年)の最高裁判決行政戦没者の遺族の援護行政のために靖国神社などに対し玉串料支出したこと違憲とした歴史的判決で、戦争経験がしっかり振り返えられた、という点で、司法仕事としてとても大きなものを残したと思う。建国精神を振り返るのが裁判所の仕事の一つだと思う。

しかし、戦後77年。戦争体験が風化するなかで、「あの時代を生き抜いた」という共通体験共通項として持っていたものがどんどん失われているのが今の時代

50年前の高度成長期だったら、戦争で死んだ部下を思い出しながら、仕事にまい進し、酒場で同期の仲間と語り合う、とか、厳粛に生きるための厳粛な死が記憶としてあった。

「あの頃は」という共通過去で人はつながることができた。それが内発的なものとして60年安保闘争を支え、水俣闘争があった。外付けの倫理ではない、思い出としての切実さの空気の共有があった。

まり、舶来の外付けの価値観と内発的な器は、その頃はわりと調和していた、といえるのだ。

それが、失われ、外付けの価値観だけがカラカラと空回りし始めているのが今の時代の特徴で、失われつつある寛容性の正体なのだろう。

永井氏はそんな時代に生まれ育った。彼は対談のなかで、大学時代

「そうかそうか、人権というものがあるのか、みんな賛同してるし普遍性高いじゃん」となりました。

と、外付けの人権から始まったと語っているが、外付けのものにも普遍性のみに着目し、それが生まれてきたプロセスを振り返らない、人権教育の失敗が見て取れる。

また、日本憲法に組み込まれ歴史への反省(前文含め)も記憶の風化とともに、個々人の内省が、時代への共鳴という形で、共感を醸成しなくなってしまっている。

高度成長期に「あの頃」といえば戦争時代だった。

それはかろうじて80年代までは存在していた。「おしん」が異例の1年間の朝ドラで始まってしばらくすると、

視聴者からは、おしん私自身そのものです、という声が橋田壽賀子のもとに多数届いたという。

しかし、時代は変わって、平成から令和になって「あの頃」といえば、昭和の末期なのだ

しかもそれをノスタルジックに思い出す、三丁目の夕日的な振り返りだった。さらには、あさま山荘であり、学歴社会バイクを盗んで走る尾崎豊であり、バブルの思い出なのだ。それは、その遺産に苦しんだ次の世代にとっては共感を呼びにくいものであるし、自分たちの社会の重圧と、戦争記憶との関連が薄まった。当然、日本憲法リアリティが失われ、右派から改憲論議が盛り上がってくるのは必然的なことだった。そんななか、統一教会が国の内部を白アリのように巣くって愕然とした先月から今月にかけての出来事というのは、忘れかけた宗教国家の結びつきの恐ろしさを、突如呼び覚まされるものだったに違いない。

しかし、いずれにしても過去記憶憲法規範が直接に結び付かない、その世代経験、そこに、永井紛争国の辺境の地を自分テーマに選んだヒントがあるように思えてならない。

紛争リアルがそこにある。そこに普遍的価値として大学生ときに知った人権、そして憲法価値を、自分なりの振り返りとして再確認する、動機付けがあったようにも思う。

しかし、たとえ社会の人々と共有されないものであったとしても、ひとは自分史のなかで、どうふるまうべきかを動機付けられる。

永井氏が、内田氏との対話のなかで

私は逆に、子どもの頃はよく母親に殴られたり色々と物を捨てられたりされていて、そのときに「この家では力を持った奴は殴ったり物を捨てたりしていいんだな」と思ってしまったんです。そして中学生になって殴られたときに「よく見たら小さいし別に喧嘩が強いわけでもないな」ということに気が付きまして。それでそこから自分母親のことを殴りまくるようになりました。ひどい時はアザだらけでしたよね。父親単身赴任でしたし。

といったときに、内田はそこにしっかりと気が付くべきだったと思う。

全然人権派じゃないね(笑)。」と返した内田に若干物足りなさを感じたのは、まさにそこだ。

動機付けられるものが、必ずしも、家風であったり、模範的ロールモデルとは限らないのだ。

この体験辺境の地での人権探し、自分探しは、多分無関係ではない。


ともあれアレックス・カー面白い

読んだのは20年前だが、年齢を重ねれば重ねるほど、彼のいう、逆徳精神の考え方が真理に思えてくる。

A clue to the problem may be found in what I call the theory of Opposite Virtues. Nations, like people in this respect, may pride themselves most highly on the quality they most lack. Hence “fair play” is a golden virtue in Great Britain, the country that attacked and subjugated half the globe. “Equality” was the banner of Soviet Russia, where commissars owned lavish dachas on the Black Sea and the proletariat lived no better than serfs. The United States prides itself on its high “moral standard,” while perpetuating racial and moral double standards. And then there is l’amour in France, a nation of cold-blooded rationalists. Or Canadians priding themselves most on being so distinctively “Canadian.” In Japan we must look at the time-honored ideal of Wa, “peace.” Wa means security, stability, everything in its proper place, “knowing what is enough.”Yet a persistent irony of Japanese history since 1868 is that for all the emphasis on peace and harmony, they are exactly the virtues that Japan did not pursue. At the end of the nineteenth century, rather than settling back to enjoy its new prosperity, Japan embarked on a campaign to conquer and colonize its neighbors. By the 1930s, it had already acquired a tremendous empire in East Asia; this inability to stop led to its suicidal attack on the U.S. base at Pearl Harbor, as a result of which it lost everything. Something similar is happening again. Perhaps Japan values Wa so highly for the very reason that it has such a strong tendency toward imbalance and uncontrollable extremes.

クトゥルーご飯を…食っとぅるーwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Look to the sky, way up on high

There in the night stars are now right

Eons have passed: now then at last

Prison walls break, Old Ones awake!

They will return: mankind will learn

New kinds of fear when they are here

They will reclaim all in their name;

Hopes turn to black when they come back

Ignorant fools, mankind now rules

Where they ruled then: it's theirs again

Stars brightly burning, boiling and churning

Bode a returning season of doom

Scary scary scary scary solstice

Very very very scary solstice

Up from the sea, from underground

Down from the sky, they're all around

They will return: mankind will learn

New kinds of fear when they are here

Look to the sky, way up on high

There in the night stars are now right

Eons have passed: now then at last

Prison walls break, Old Ones awake!

Madness will reign, terror and pain

Woes without end where they extend

Ignorant fools, mankind now rules

Where they ruled then: it's theirs again

Stars brightly burning, boiling and churning

Bode a returning season of doom

Scary scary scary scary solstice

Very very very scary solstice

Up from the sea, from underground

Down from the sky, they're all around

Fear

(Look to the sky, way up on high

There in the night stars now are right)

They will return

みんなー ラブデス&ロボット見た?

シーズン2はガッカリだったけどシーズン3はどちゃくそ面白かったよ!

どれも1020分くらいのショートアニメだけど、自分は何を見たんだ...?!ていうショッキングものから、軽く笑えるものまで振れ幅が広くて最高

個人的おもしろランキング

1. "Jibaro"

音響攻撃かましてくる沼の魔女と聾の兵士対峙する。

この沼の魔女が隊の他の兵士や、守護のために同行していた尼さんたちを殺していくシーンが凄まじい

ロマとかタイ舞踊みたいな魅惑的な身のこなしが圧倒的に美しいんだけどそれと同時に身の毛がよだつほど恐ろしい 絡め取られていく兵士たちがフィギュアスケートを踊るように絡め取られて踊り狂って沼に沈んで死んでいく、馬は沼に沈み、甲冑の重みで溺れ・・・

いろんなアートコンテンポラリーダンスとかを取り入れてるんだろうけど、見ているともう画面に釘付けで、ああ、やめて・・・もうやめて・・・でも目が離せない!と呆然としてしまう、そこに一人取り残される聾の兵士

この後の展開も素晴らしく恐ろしいから是非見て欲しい

 

2. "The Very Pulse of the Machine"

衛星イオの表面で調査をしていた二人の宇宙飛行士事故に遭い、生き残った一人がもう一人を引き摺りながら脱出を目指すが、そのために使った薬物の過剰摂取幻覚を見るようになり、死んだパートナーの声が聞こえるようになるがそれはパートナーではなく、、、という話

イオ組成について幻覚が語りかけてきて、それはなに?それはなに?という問いかから答えを導くシーンがゾクゾクしま

アートスタイルも最高

 

3. "Night of the Mini Dead"

ミニチュアゾンビアポカリプス最後の puff!!! が最高、文字通り、遠くから見ると喜劇、なのか

 

かに殺人マシングマと特殊部隊が戦う話とか、オブラディン号の帰還まんまの海の怪物との邂逅の話とか、とにかく全部捨て話なしの良さなのでみんな見て
